WASHINGTON (AP) — In a jubilant Washington Commanders locker room, linebacker Frankie Luvu announced whom he wanted to reward with a game ball: “Took one on the sideline, and popped up like toast. DQ!” With that, Luvu went over to wrap coach Dan Quinn in a hug. The Commanders already were leading the Las Vegas Raiders when Quinn got bowled over and bloodied by quarterback Marcus Mariota in a sideline collision shortly before halftime Sunday, but the players loved the way their boss got right back up.
